Plastics for optimized bulk material handling
The movement of large masses places high demands on technology and equipment. Wherever bulk materials are transported, stored or further processed, wear and caking cause standstills in the work process. The flowability is thus of great importance for a smooth process. Our Matrox® product range was developed specifically for the demanding processes in bulk materials handling. Matrox® combines the best surface friction with the highest abrasion resistance, allowing the material to improve the performance and efficiency of your conveying processes.
Your advantages
- Improved flowability of your bulk goods
- Weight advantages: for a 200m² silo the weight saving is 3 tonnes
- Longer service life: in sand-slurry wear tests Matrox® achieves a value 46% better than steel with an index of 80
- High safety: flame retardant (UL94/V0) possible
Typical areas of application
- Bunker and silo linings
- Mine vehicles
- Transport vehicles
- Wagon linings

Arrange technical advice
The performance and reliability of linings used for materials handling is influenced by a variety of factors. These factors must be taken into account in order to select the right materials. Examples:
- Type of goods being conveyed
- Mechanical loading
- Thermal loading
- Use in areas at risk of explosion
- Direct contact with food
- External influences such as UV radiation and weathering
- Design requirements
